Cadence progress/starting AJ

Cadence progress/starting AJ

Starting a (hopefully) quick AJ commission šŸ˜… I’m using the smug bedroom eyes with my laying pattern. I wanted a chance to fuss with my head pattern again anyway, lol.

Cadence is on hold until after AJ. Her hair is patterned I just need to format it for printing. I’ll release the printable files with it, and figure out how to get it...

Cadence beanie coming up!

Cadence beanie coming up!

I’m also releasing a tutorial for doing floating embroidery appliquĆ© (finally)! I figure most of you guys know how but I’ve never released a tutorial for it. I’d like to go back and include it with big mac etc and the files with it.

I’m also going to release files for printing for her hair! I think only for you guys, for now. $10 ...

So the satin eyes didn’t turn out right (they got wrinkles) so I’m re doing her eyes with embroidery. But I like how her hair turned out!

I’ve sent this out to all my patrons a few days ago, big figured I’d post for anyone who follows my patreon. I’m still working on the embroidery files, they will go out to $10+ patrons once I’m done.

Few pics for the final. Here’s the post on Twitter https://twitter.com/mofumofumoth/status/1511770587072323586?s=21

Scoots done!

Yay so happy she’s done! I’ll take nice photos tomorrow. I have 2 life size ponies coming up next, though I might take a simple 14ā€ mare commission before I start. I think I wanna test out the head an extra time and try out some neat things I have planned with sublimation. Email me if you are interested in that! MyLittleWaifuplushies@gmail...

Fur pile!

Fur pile!

Got some fur in for a life size Dash, and some for a Twilight too. I’m ordering another yellow since the one I got was too pale. The colors in the pic aren’t super accurate, but it’s just fun to see colorful project materials. ā˜ŗļø

Dyed fur

Dyed fur

Managed to get the Scootaloo fur pretty close to what I wanted! Just a tad pinker and darker than Raspberry (bottom). Crossing my fingers the pattern works out cuz I don’t have extra fur (I dyed only the pattern pieces)

I made a bath of diluted acrylic paint, then very barely wrang them out and dried with a blow dryer while intermittentl...

Laying pattern? And Scootaloo!

Laying pattern? And Scootaloo!

Thinking about releasing an updated mare laying pattern! My old beanie laying pattern is really outdated and it would be easy for me to add a laying version. (Not exactly like Derpy but I’d probably use the limb shapes)

Also started on an adult Scootaloo! I’m attempting to paint-dye some fur hair. It worked on ...

Dashie Done!

Dashie Done!

After much fussing with my sublimation printer I finally got the ink to penetrate deep enough into the fibers! It's almost at the base, which is good enough for me. There's barely any white showing, even at the hair points! Still a lot of experimenting left to do with the sublimation. I'll share more in detail soon.

Fluttershy done!!

Fluttershy done!!

Wow a finished pony, it’s a miracle! She’s getting some socks and a collar, so I’m not completely done with her, but enough to take some nice pictures. I’ll edit them later today.

Next project is getting my sublimation printer working to make hair for a dash beanie!

More changes still…

More changes still…

I keep thinking I’m almost done, but then I need to keep making big changes. šŸ˜… I need to redo her front mane, side mane, and head. Tail and body needs minor adjustments.

Her wing pattern is new, and should be able to be machine sewn into the plush now. Her ears are machine sewn also, but they still need tweaking to be sewn in properly...

Homemade printed minky time!!

Homemade printed minky time!!

I bought an Epson ET-2803 printer to make some custom printed minky! Plushiluv had some really nice results and I’m really excited to give it a try! I’ve yet to buy the sublimation paper/ink, need to read around a bit more for the best brand etc. My friend gave me a heat press so I’m most of the way there.

I’ll let you guys know t...

Ears!

Ears!

I worked so hard on getting these pesky things just right. I used a combo of fusible thin batting (to make the inner ear stiff) and thin sew-in batting to give the back of the ear a little padding. I’m still working on trying to get them to machine sew into my head pattern easily. My previous ears used glue, plastic and a bunch of hand sewing,...

Garment steamer is my new best friend

Garment steamer is my new best friend

Have really stiff minky that doesn’t feel soft at all? Use a steamer!!! I tried an iron first (and brushing up the nap) but it just made the minky even more flat and barely any softer. Then I remembered I bought a garment steamer for wig styling, and it was just the trick!

Here’s what I did:

1. Lay the minky flat on an ironing b...

I have a Twitter!

Trying to be more active, I don’t really use Facebook much anymore. Slowly re-branding, I finally changed my DA username! (It’s been buttercupbabyppg since I was 13 lol)

I’m going to try to make a basic site with gallery/store/FAQ soonish. Etsy is less than ideal. It’s good for my patterns and embroidery files, but I’d rather no...

Look a Thing!

Look a Thing!

If you were curious of my floating embroidery method, I cut out the pieces, embroider an outline, then use 505 to position, pin solvy on top. Embroider. I like to use it for big pieces because it reduces waste of fabric/stabilizer/time. The stabilizer is actually a very heavy weight tear away (for hats) It doesn’t tear too great but it stitche...

Getting really close to finishing her up now! Been a long time in the making, so I’m really glad I have the time. Her hair and ears are only pinned. I still need to make her wings but she’s really close now!

Blessing in Disguise!

Finally, I'm a full time plush maker again! I'm still technically employed but there's pretty much no work for me to do until business picks up again, so I opted to stay home. Honestly I'm thrilled to get a chance to get back into plush work for a while. I just finished the Them's Fightin Herds plushies last night and will be taking pictures of ...

Sewing...at work!

Sewing...at work!

So my work is still open, but things are so slow that my boss doesn’t mind if I sew at work! So the TFH are very close to done now! We are getting so little business though I think it’s a matter of time until we close. But for now, I can basically do my plush work and still get a pay check so win-win!

Updates! Staying home?

So it looks Iike I’ll likely be unemployed for a while, due to the coronavirus, so back to plushies!! I’m not sure if my job situation yet, but I’ll likely find out tomorrow.

I plan to get past due rewards out and re-enstate the license tier at a lower price, without new patterns included. Going to be poor as heck for a while but at...

Hello everyone, patrons and followers. I will be doing Patreon differently from this month onward. I will be removing all tiers except for the $1 tier. I’ll continue posting my projects and WIPs however all content will be public, this 1$ tier will basically be a tip jar, though I’ll post little goodies and coupons for my 1$ patrons every so...

Updates!

Hey ya'll. So long story short, I got a new 9-5 job and it's been really tough to squeeze in plush work into my schedule.  My patreon is on hold for the moment as I catch up with past rewards. I promise they are coming though, just hang in there! I'm also retiring beanie kits, so if any of my patrons are interested in offering them go for i...
